Called in to KGO on short notice, PBC comments on the State of the Union message, along with Rep. John Garamendi (D-Walnut Grove), Rep. Jackie Speier (D-San Mateo) and Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Auburn) plus Rob Weissman of Public Citizen and climate change activist Randy Hayes. Lots of good comments from callers, too. Click here to go to the KGO hourly archives, select Tuesday, January 25 and the hours 7pm, 8pm and 9pm. There are lots of breaks and commercials, so use your cursor to fast forward through them. The files will only be available for one week.

Your Humble Host is sitting in for all-night host Ray Taliafero this week on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday mornings from 1-5 am.

This will reduce my sleep and my ability to deliver fresh podcasts this week, but will give you plenty to listen to if you have the time!
